by the light of the moon…

iris at night, originally uploaded by pilgrimgirl.

Took my camera to the garden with me last night. It was about 5:30 pm and already too dark to snap pics without a flash. I don’t think flowers look their best with a bright light, but this one turned out interesting-looking. It’s sort of a flopped-over iris. :)

Whenever I see my irises in bloom I think of my friend Rebecca who gave them to me. She dug them up from a friend’s garden after that friend died and her kids were remodeling her home and yard to look like some fancy Tuscan villa. One without irises, that is. :)

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
